Governing Council
Governing councils are bodies that govern a school or preschool.
Governing councils work with the site leader to help set and monitor the direction of the site.
At Craigmore High School the Governing Council meets on Tuesday evenings in week 2 and 7 of each term. Attending meetings are a significant part of being on governing council however, you might also:
- Be on an interview panel to select the site’s principal

As a governing council representative you work with the principal to:
- Involve the local community
- Develop and approve local policies

- Monitor and review the site improvement plan
There are a number of roles on the Craigmore High School Governing Council including:
- Chairperson
